The South Indian Goddess who once ruled Indian cinema

Though she was no exponent of Bharatanatyam, or a trained dancer, she had to dance parts of it in several films - like here in Kalaakar

With her expressive face and large eyes, and her long limbs and graceful feminine poses, she danced on screen like she was trained - even though famously she wasn't. As she mentioned on Baaje Paayal. Wish I had saved that full episode - only parts of it are now left online.
